Make Space for The Creator in Yourself!
This is the meaning of the words in The Zohar (Tikkunim): “Invert Ratzon [desire] and you will find Tzinor [pipeline]…” It means that the pipeline is opposite to the desire for it compels its desire and does the opposite of what it wants.
When we discuss the vessel in general, meaning the vessel and the screen together, we define it by the name “pipeline.” When discussing the light, the vessel, and the screen together, meaning the light that is clothed in the measure of the pipeline, it is defined by the name “line,” and when we discuss a vessel in which there is no screen, we define it by the name “circle” (Baal HaSulam, “The Study of the Ten Sefirot“).
Malchut, the creation, the desire to enjoy, acquires the properties of bestowal within itself due to all kinds of requests, prayers, and demands. These new properties of bestowal combine with its natural property of receiving; from this combination of the two opposites—the desire to enjoy and the intention to bestow clothed in it—a new vessel (Kli) is born. The desire to receive takes the form of bestowal, and in the form of such bestowal, the connection between the fourth stage and the root, creation and the Creator, is revealed.
Everything happens inside creation. In that round sphere (Igul) that existed before, a line (Kav) now stretches. In other words, we see how the creation frees up a space within itself where the Creator can enter. It creates this place out of its new, empty desire it develops!
This is not the desire it received from above, from the Creator, because then it would have been the desire to enjoy, the fourth stage itself, which wants to fill itself. But creation adds new desires to all those in it from nature to reveal the properties of bestowal. When this property of bestowal comes to a person, there is already a place where it can clothe itself and exist.
This is how the Creator clothes Himself in creation, and we reveal Him. That is why He is called the Creator (Bo-Reh), which means “come and see.”
In this manifestation of the Creator, we reveal a certain order, a connection between us called ten Sefirot. The first Sefira, Keter, is the Creator, the last is creation, Malchut, and the intermediate Sefirot are relations between them in both directions: from Keter to Malchut and from Malchut to Keter.
In these Sefirot, there are also direct (Yeshar) channels of connection between the Creator and creation, and round Sefirot (Igulim), also a connection, but one that creation cannot yet realize on its own, feeling it only in one direction, from the Creator to itself. The guest feels that the host wants to give him almost the entire world of infinity in addition to what he received in a narrow tube, like a thin ray of light (line). However, the guest cannot yet accept this infinity and feels it is a surrounding light.
So, there is a line, that is, a pipe filled with light, like a cave which, when filled with water (the light of Hassadim), is called a well. All the light is revealed inside this tube, which is called a line.
Everything else remains surrounding for now, like round vessels (Kelim) and round lights.
